Very good Post!
Funny how it goes. I fish in Utah and Idaho for Cutts, Browns, and rainbows with Brookies and few other species. The weird thing is, the flies I use in Utah that just slay the fish don't work in Idaho and vise versa.
There are of course the standards that work anywhere like Copper Johns, Adams, Royal Wulff's and Humpy's, along with certain color streamers.
In Utah I use a lot of very tiny 28 to 32's. Snow flies and what not, But Idaho, a Griffith Gnat works well.
I will try a fly maybe 5 to 10 cast, if nothing I will switch flies trying different approaches each time.
I will also not stay in one spot for long periods, even if they are biting. Try to find new spots if a fly is working, or try different flies on a good day to see if I can find that Holy Grail Flie[cool]
